It's late and I am sitting here alone. Taking a sip of my whiskey. It's quiet now.

Especially when you're coming down from a long chat with a friend. We needed to clear up some things. Our relationship gets better each day.

Now we both know where we stand.

I'm sure we're clear now.

What were her last words? "We're fine?" Or just "Fine?"

Okay, down the hatch.
